The result may not have gone the way that Conor McGregor predicted it would have on Saturday night against Floyd Mayweather, but that was not going to stop him celebrating his monumental pay-day at his pre-planned after party.
Encore Beach Club on the Las Vegas strip was the location as McGregor and his team had a few drinks, thanked the fans, and spent some time with a number of familiar faces.
It looked like one hell of a party, and thankfully MMA journalist Chamatkar Sandhu was there with his phone out to give us all at home a glimpse as to how it went down.
The reaction as McGregor addressed the fans in attendance was something else:

Perhaps the most familiar face for Irish sports fans was that of Robbie Keane who made the trip to Las Vegas to show support for Conor McGregor and was spotted having a serious chat with McGregor away from the crowds.

And John Kavanagh was spotted busting a few moves on the dancefloor too:

And McGregor also made his way to the DJ booth to drink in the adoration of the crowd.

As we said, the Conor McGregor after party looked like a fun event, and the man himself is even believed to have settled the bar bill at around €85k.
Thanks to @SandhuMMA on Twitter for the footage.
